When two gimbals rotate around the same axis, the system loses one degree of freedom. Gimbal lock is the loss of one degree of freedom in a three-dimensional, three-gimbal mechanism that occurs when the axes of two of the three gimbals are driven into a parallel configuration, "locking" the system into rotation in a degenerate two-dimensional ...
Gimbal lock is the loss of one degree of freedom in a multi-dimensional mechanism at certain alignments of the axes. In a three-dimensional three-gimbal mechanism, gimbal lock occurs when the axes of two of the gimbals are driven into a parallel configuration, "locking" the system into rotation in a degenerate two-dimensional space. The term ...
CineStar 2-Axis Gimbal: Released November 2011. Designed for aerial cinematography, the CineStar gimbal used a 5 mm (0.20 in) thick piece of carbon fiber mounted to a 25 mm (0.98 in) cross tube to hold the camera in place. [16] The gimbal supporting cameras with up to a maximum width of 6.2 inches (160 mm) and height of 5.11 inches (130 mm). [17]
The second gimbal, inner gimbal, is mounted in the gyroscope frame (outer gimbal) so as to pivot about an axis in its own plane that is always perpendicular to the pivotal axis of the gyroscope frame (outer gimbal). This inner gimbal has two degrees of rotational freedom. The axle of the spinning wheel (the rotor) defines the spin axis.
The Phantom 2 was released in December 2013 as a camera-less version of the Phantom 2 Vision. [13] Although it did not include a built-in camera gimbal, an optional two-axis Zenmuse H3-2D gimbal was made available to mount a GoPro HERO3 camera. [6] [14]
To track celestial objects as they move across the sky, these systems usually rotate on two axes. Often, a tilting mechanism (elevation) is mounted upon a panning base . To cover the complete hemisphere of visible sky, a telescope gimbal can have a 360-degree azimuth range and a 0- to 90-degree elevation range.
